An interview with Dr. Linus Chuang from Danbury Hospital and Norwalk Hospital, Nuvance Health in Connecticut and New York, co-chair on “Management and Care of Patients with Invasive Cervical Cancer: ASCO Resource-Stratified Guideline Rapid Recommendation Update.” Dr. Chuang discusses the updated recommendation on the use of pembrolizumab in patients with persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical carcinoma, based on the results from the KEYNOTE-826 study. For more information, visit, www.asco.org/resource-stratified-guidelines. Transcript BRITTANY HARVEY: Hello, and welcome to the ASCO Guidelines podcast series brought to you by the ASCO Podcast Network, a collection of nine programs covering a range of educational and scientific content and offering enriching insight into the world of cancer care. You can find all the shows, including this one, at asco.org/podcasts. My name is Brittany Harvey, and today I'm interviewing Dr. Linus Chuang from Danbury Hospital in Norwalk Hospital, Nuvance Health, in Connecticut and New York, Co-Chair on "Management and Care of Patients with Invasive Cervical Cancer-- ASCO Resource-Stratified Guideline Rapid Recommendation Update." Thank you for being here, Dr. Chuang. LINUS CHUANG: Thank you for having me. BRITTANY HARVEY: First, I'd like to note that ASCO takes great care in the development of its guidelines and ensuring that the ASCO conflict of interest policy is followed for each guideline. The full conflict of interest information for this guideline is available online with a publication in the Journal of Clinical Oncology Global Oncology. Dr. Chuang, do you have any relevant disclosures that are directly related to this guideline topic? LINUS CHUANG: No, Brittany. BRITTANY HARVEY: Thank you. Then talking about the content of this publication, so what prompted this rapid update to the "Management and Care of Patients with Invasive Cervical Cancer-- ASCO Resource-Stratified Clinical Practice Guideline," last published in 2016? LINUS CHUANG: ASCO Rapid Recommendations Updates highlight revisions to ASCO guideline recommendations on "Management and Care of Women with Invasive Cervical Cancer, the ASCO Resource-Stratified Clinical Practice Guideline" that was published in September of 2016. We revised the guidelines to reflect new and practice-changing data on the use of pembrolizumab combination therapy in patients with metastatic, recurrent, or persistent cervical cancer in enhanced and maximal settings. BRITTANY HARVEY: Great. Then based off this new data for the pembrolizumab combination therapy, what are the updated recommendations from the guideline panel? LINUS CHUANG: Based on this recently published report about the KEYNOTE-826 study, the checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab alongside standard chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab as first-line therapy significantly improved the overall and progression-free survival in patients with persistent, recurrent, or metastatic PD-L1 expressing cervical cancer. BRITTANY HARVEY: Great. Thank you for providing that recommendation. So what should clinicians know as they implement these recommendations, and for which settings do these recommendations apply? LINUS CHUANG: This trial included 617 patients, pembrolizumab 200 milligrams delivered intravenously every three weeks in combination with standard chemotherapy and with or without bevacizumab for up to 35 cycles. It's worth emphasizing based on the following study results the median progression-free survival was 2.2 months longer in the pembrolizumab group that have a PD-L1 combined positive score of 1 or more. And the progression-free survival at 12 months was also longer by 20% in the pembrolizumab group when compared to the placebo group. The overall survival rate at 12 and 24 months were higher in the pembrolizumab group-- 75% and 53% respectively-- compared with the placebo cohort-- 63% and 41% respectively. According to the study, the most common adverse reactions, which occur in more than one in five patients in the pembrolizumab group, are anemia, neutropenia, alopecia, and peripheral neuropathy. Based on this data our rapid communication recommended this regimen be used in the enhanced and maximal settings where the pembrolizumab is available. BRITTANY HARVEY: Great. Thank you for reviewing that data in the context of this recommendation. So how will these guideline recommendations impact patients? LINUS CHUANG: So pembrolizumab with the standard chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab demonstrated improvement in the progression-free and overall survival much longer than those without the pembrolizumab group. And this has emerged as a front-line therapy for the group of patients that have persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical cancer with PD-L1 expression cervical cancer. BRITTANY HARVEY: OK, thank you. And then finally, what emerging evidence is the panel anticipating regarding treatment of invasive cervical cancer? LINUS CHUANG: This is an exciting time. Exploration of other PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors, monotherapy, or as part of combination therapy for cervical cancer will expand the management of patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer that progressed after platinum-based chemotherapy. It is also important to explore the ability of pembrolizumab with chemoradiation with or without concurrent and maintenance pembrolizumab to improve outcomes for patients with high-risk locally advanced cervical cancer. BRITTANY HARVEY: Great. That's very exciting to see that evidence coming to fruition. So I want to thank you so much for your work to rapidly update this guideline and for your time tonight, Dr. Chuang. LINUS CHUANG: Thank you for having me today. BRITTANY HARVEY: And thank you to all of our listeners for tuning into the ASCO Guidelines podcast series. To read the full guideline, go to www.asco.org/resource stratified guidelines.

Dr. Jade Anderson discusses transitioning from orthopedic surgery to radiology, and shares advice for residency applications and interviews. Dr. Anderson is a radiology resident at Norwalk Hospital in Connecticut.   [01:14] Why Switch from Orthopedic Surgery to Radiology? [05:03] Applying for a Position in Radiology [07:14] Switching Specialties in Medicine [09:44] Transition from Orthopedic Surgery to Radiology [12:25] How to Be a Standout Applicant [15:17] Applying for a Residency During COVID-19 [21:13] Tips for Nailing Your Residency Interview [22:52] Dr. Anderson’s Advice to Pre-Meds and Medical Students   Erkeda DeRouen chats with Dr. Jade Anderson, a radiology resident at Norwalk Hospital in Connecticut. Prior to her current position, she was an orthopedic surgeon for 2 years. Realizing that her true calling was in radiology, she made the difficult decision to switch specializations. Switching Residencies from Orthopedic Surgery to Radiology From a young age, Dr. Anderson knew she wanted to become an orthopedic surgeon. As an orthopedics resident, she found that reading and interpreting imaging was what she enjoyed the most. She even taught several radiology classes in her spare time. Looking back, her interest in radiology has always been there. A self-evaluation made her realize that maybe radiology would be a better fit for her. Dr. Anderson reached out to other doctors who switched from orthopedics to radiology. Their journeys resonated so much with what she was feeling. Her friends encouraged her to make the switch and so she did. It was a tough decision but it proved to be the correct one as Dr. Anderson is currently thriving in her new field. Most medical students are unaware that that they can switch residencies but it is indeed possible. Dr. Anderson admits that her laser focus on becoming an orthopedic surgeon has blinded her from considering other options. Take a moment to pause every once in a while to evaluate your happiness in your chosen field.   Transition from Orthopedic Surgery to Radiology Switching specialties will come with new challenges. For Dr. Anderson, she had to build her knowledge and skills in radiology while re-learning past lessons in medicine. She’s an expert in the musculoskeletal system but there are other areas she needed to brush up on.   Thankfully, she was able to adjust to her new specialization fairly quickly. Radiologists are the physician’s physician. Doctors rely on them to interpret imaging results, to identify possible complications, and to evaluate the success of surgeries. A radiologist makes vital decisions that could affect a patient’s outcome. Applying for a Residency During COVID-19 The coronavirus pandemic has forced hospitals and schools to cancel in person interviews. Assessments will be conducted virtually. This also means that applicants won’t get the chance to visit the hospital and see its facilities and systems in action. On the other hand, students are applying to more places because they don’t have to attend interviews in person. Programs are well aware of this and are adjusting to accommodate time differences. Interviewers may ask standardized questions as a comparative scale to screen applicants. Since face to face interviews are not possible, admission committees will have to rely more on documents. Board scores matter but they also consider grades, rotations, and the dean’s letter. All these requirements paint a picture of how you work with others and how you treat patients. Tips for Nailing Your Residency Interview Familiarize yourself with common questions and have your answers ready. No need to memorize a script, but instead answer authentically using your outline as a guide. Go with the flow of the conversation, adding or removing talking points as needed. Practicing in front of a mirror helps to build confidence. Check your gadget, video conference software, and internet connection beforehand to guarantee that your interview will run smoothly on the day of. The interviewer will use this meeting to assess whether you will fit in with the department. An outgoing personality is not necessary but use this opportunity to show that you are approachable, responsible, and cooperative. Dr. Anderson’s Advice to Pre-Meds and Medical Students As you become a resident, you will be tasked with more responsibilities. Double checking is very important to avoid mistakes. Check up on your colleagues, juniors, and staff to see if tasks have been completed. Inspect your own work to ensure everything is in order. Take everything you hear with a grain of salt. Get into the habit of verifying information¾this will save you a lot of trouble in the future.
